Stork Effect

A mysterious storm has torn a time-travelling apartment apart, scattering its rooms, belongings—and the family of storks who call it home—across three very different eras of Uzbekistan. Journey through the bustling cities of the ancient Silk Road, survive the snowy streets of a Soviet winter, and explore the colorful neighborhoods of modern-day Tashkent in a story-driven puzzle platformer about family, home, and finding your way back to one another. Run, jump, climb, and explore beautifully crafted environments inspired by Uzbekistan’s history and culture. Solve environmental puzzles, uncover hidden paths, meet characters from different periods, and use the strange effects of the broken apartment to interact with a world where pieces of the past, present, and future have begun to overlap. Along the way, search for the scattered members of the stork family and recover pieces of their home—from important objects to little everyday belongings carrying memories of the life they shared. Each discovery brings the apartment closer to being whole again and reveals more of the family’s story. Three eras. One broken home. One very important dinner. Piece everything back together, reunite the family, and somehow get everyone home in time to eat.
